Be careful. Lots of peeps are writing about the low price of Kindle is going to be powered by more ads than ever before. Even in e-books...while you're reading. Yes, ads popping up in the middle of a novel & cannot be ignored. Yikes.

I am laughing!! I-phones can't be that complicated! I prefer them instead of Blackberries. Let us know what you decided.Where's the French girl? Went home already? I can't even imagine a trip right now, the way it's cold and wet here in OH, I only want to stay indoors.Take care Carol!

I love the Métro stuff! I know that somewhere you can get a watch with your favourite Métro line (mine is most definitely the 6) around the band - and your favourite stop (a toss up between Denfert-Rochereau and Glacières) as the watch face, if you wanted more Métro paraphernalia!

ROFL!! I have a great idea for you - go to Zazzle and have them print the Paris subway map on a t-shirt. Here is the important part: have it printed UPSIDE DOWN so you have only to glance down to read the info you want.

Very funny post, Carol.I think that I would go with the Kindle, too - for the bigger display. But maybe the smaller iTouch is more convenient to carry? There must be someone who can help you set it up? Have a great weekend!

It would make my day to see someone consulting a tea-towel for guidance in the metro - fantastic idea, though yes, perhaps not so practical in rush hour!Carol, when are you in London, it would be lovely to meet if you have a moment ...
